  • Development of U.S. Africa Command J.P
    Forthcoming in THE JOURNAL OF THE MIDDLE EAST AND AFRICA, vol. 5, no. 3 The Development of the United States Africa Command and Its Role in America’s Africa Policy under George W. Bush and Barack Obama J. Peter Pham The announcement in early 2007 of the decision to create the United States Africa Command (AFRICOM) generated considerable controversy, not only in Africa, but also within the United States. Seven years into its existence, it is possible to tentatively reexamine the premises underlying the establishment of AFRICOM as well as its activities to date, measuring them against both the promise held out by the command’s proponents and the fears raised concerning it by critics. The conclusion is that, protestations to the contrary by certain U.S. officials notwithstanding, American interests were indeed the primary motivation for the command’s launch. Nonetheless, it has turned out that in pursuit of those strategic objectives—both during the remainder of the George W. Bush administration and, subsequently, in the first six years of Barack Obama’s presidency—AFRICOM’s activities have been largely an extension of ongoing U.S. security cooperation with the African states involved, and perhaps improved delivery of these efforts’ services, rather than the vanguard of some new militarized foreign policy. While a number of questions linger, AFRICOM seems to be progressively finding its niche within both U.S. policy and Africa’s own security architecture. KEYWORDS African security, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, United States Africa Command (AFRICOM), U.S. foreign policy, U.S.-Africa relations INTRODUCTION The announcement in February 2007 by President George W.

  • U.S. Army Europe Welcomes New Commanding General
    RELEASE #2008-09-08-01 September 8, 2008 U.S. Army Europe Welcomes New Commanding General U.S. Army Europe Public Affairs Office HEIDELBERG, Germany -- United States Army Europe welcomed its 34th commanding general, Gen. Carter F. Ham, today during a ceremony on the Campbell Barracks parade field here. Army Gen. John Craddock, commanding general of U.S. European Command, officiated at the ceremony. “To Carter Ham, and Christi, congratulations, welcome aboard. I don’t think there could have been a better choice or a more perfect fit for this job,” Craddock said. “(General Ham) understands taking care of Soldiers and Families, the turbulence, the challenges, the sacrifice that we ask, and he has the credentials and experience to bring that to U.S. Army Europe and 7th Army.” Ham said his only regret as he assumed command was that his wife, Christi, wasn’t present. “Those of you who know her know that she is by far the better half of the Ham team, and I look forward to her arrival soon,” Ham said. Craddock and Ham each offered thanks to Lt. Gen Gary D. Speer, USAREUR deputy commanding general, for his service as acting commanding general after the previous USAREUR commander, Gen. David McKiernan, left Heidelberg in May to assume command of the International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan. “I’d like to add my personal thanks to what General Craddock indicated and publicly acknowledge Lt. General Gary Speer, who has so eagerly led the USAREUR team over these past several months. As General Craddock mentioned, USAREUR hasn’t missed a beat with Gary’s firm hand at the helm,” Ham said.

STABILITY-ENHANCEMENT INVESTMENTS AND THE FY18 BUDGET June 13, 2017 – Senate Armed Services Committee Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee, thank you for the opportunity for us to share our testimony on a matter of monumental importance to our country and the men and women in uniform we have been privileged to serve. Modern national security challenges require innovative national security thinking. Such thinking begins with recognizing one of the clear lessons of history: American security is advanced by the development of stable nations that are making progress on social development, economic growth, and good governance; by countries that enforce the rule of law and invest in the health and education of their own people. In short, America’s interests are served by nations that give their people hope that tomorrow will be better than today. Conversely, American security is undermined by frail and failing nations where hope is non-existent, and where conditions foster radicalism, produce refugees, spark insurgency, and provide safe havens for terrorists, criminal gangs, and human traffickers. In this light, it is clear to us that strategic development assistance is not charity — it is an essential, modern tool of U.S.

Of the four militaries who the US partnered with back then, all four have overthrown or tried very hard to overthrow their civilian governments. What have you learned about partnership with African militaries since then?
